What a nice little hike to the Kbal Spean waterfall (River of a Thousand Lingas) where you can discover relief depiction and lingas on a rock in the river.

A paradise for butterfly friends. Unfortunately, we didn't have that much time or patience to capture them optimally.
The journey is also very time-consuming.
But the landscape definitely makes up for it. 😍

A hike somewhere in the middle of nowhere at about 36 degrees Celsius in the shade.

Actually, it's exactly my thing... A highlight "walked to," but then I was initially disappointed upon arrival... This wasn't, or isn't, a temple.

It's a little paradise 🥰 hundreds of butterflies and beautiful rock carvings in the river.
